  • Method for improved signal to noise ratio estimation
    Publication number: 20070159392
    Abstract: A method for estimating signal/noise ratio is provided. The method comprises calculating a first signal/noise ratio (SNR) estimate using a technique with a first response time, calculating a second SNR estimate using a technique with a second, slower response time, and blending the first SNR estimate with the second SNR estimate.

  • Method and apparatus for high accuracy relative motion determination using inertial sensors
    Publication number: 20060224321
    Abstract: A relative navigation system including a first unit responsive to the motion of a first position, a second unit responsive to the motion of a second position and a processing unit that generates a relative navigation solution as a function of first unit information and second unit information. The generated relative navigation solution is indicative of at least one of: a relative position vector of the second position relative to the first position, a relative velocity of the second position relative to the first position, and a relative attitude of the first unit at the first position relative to the second unit at the second position.
